Bandstour

Visualization of bands touring around - and their carbon footprints. Yeah!

How it works

• crawler (Python) : crawl all data (gigs) from Bands in Town API. Store all crawled gigs to Mongo in a collections named "bandsintown"
• parser (node) : create a list of all venues (collection "venues") and a sub-samples of well-formatted data in 3 mongo collections : "selectedGigs", "selectedArtists", "selectedVenues"
• miner (node) : extract info and calculate metrics
• vizbandz (meteor) : visualization engine for network and geo mapping

Notes

To link the Mongo with Meteor:
start Mongo server: mongod
use bandstour db: mongo bandstour
link Meteor and Mongo: export MONGO_URL=mongodb://localhost:27017/bandstour, then start Meteor: meteor
or use: meteor --settings conf.json
